The couple, who are both 29, married at St. Paul's Episcopal Church Dec. 1 and celebrated their union at the Lucases' Carmel estate. About 270 attended the lavish event, which included turning the estate's party barn into an elegant tent-like room with billows of white fabric and hundreds of candles.

Afterward, they traveled to Turks and Caicos for their honeymoon.

"It truly was a magical night, honestly," said Pallone, who wore a dramatic gown by Rivini (Canadian designer Rita Vinieris' label) with a train. "All of our parents seemed to have a fantastic time."

Guests were treated to a few surprises, including sparklers that were offered with personalized match books that said "I do." Part of the celebration included the couple being surrounded by guests holding the lit sparklers. Favors were bottles of limonchello liqueur, an after dinner drink the couple came across last summer when they were in Italy with Pallone's father, Bill, who lives in Chicago. (Pallone's mother, Teresa Martz, and stepfather, Steve, live in Indianapolis.)

Lucas said his favorite part of the day was seeing his bride come down the aisle at St. Paul's.

"When Katie started walking down the aisle{$326}she took over the room," he said.
